It's a good dam thing we don't live to close together cause we would probably be a 2 person hit team and be cell mates together ! I'm ready to go to the bird breeders home and do what the police should have. BW!

Yes, there are lots of places that actually have a tax-exempt status portraying themselves as 'rescues' when, in reality, they are flippers. They get the bird for free, do not vet them, do not rehabilitate them, do nothing but 'rehome' them and, of course, they charge an 'adoption' fee for this. They say it's to help with the expense of keeping the birds but it's not true because a handful of seed and fresh water doesn't cost that much and they never keep birds for long because they don't really check on anybody, if they have the money, they get the bird.

I think the man I got Flutter and Phoenix from was a flipper. I saved at least the two of them.

Yes, Liz, for what you have told us about him and in my personal opinion, he is definitely a flipper!
